Definitions
- the present invention pertains to a speaker cabinet. More particularly, the invention pertains to a speaker cabinet made of a plastic resin material and which is adapted for wall mounting.
- the speaker is usually the largest of the components of an audio system, it is desirable to design the cabinet of the speaker to adapt well with the interior design of the room where the audio system is to be used and to make maximum use of the available space.
- so-called flat speakers have been developed in which the depth of the cabinet is substantially reduced and the speaker can readily be mounted on a wall or the like.
- Such flat-type speakers have attained frequency response and sound capacity characteristics comparable with those of larger conventional speakers.
- a wall-mounted speaker cabinet which is made of a resin material and which has side walls which slope inwardly toward the back of the cabinet.
- a signal terminal plate is provided on at least one of these side walls.
- An elongated rib is integrally formed in the interior of the cabinet, with the forward edge of the rib being abutted against a baffle board.
- the back of the cabinet is provided with an opening corresponding to a yoke of a speaker, and a heat radiating member disposed in this opening.
- FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a speaker cabinet constructed in accordance with the present invention
- FIGS. 2 and 3 are, respectively, a plan view and a front view of the speaker cabinet of FIG. 1, shown partially in cross section;
- FIGS. 4 and 5 are, respectively, a cross-sectional and a rear view of the speaker cabinet of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary view showing the construction of a mounting fixture of the speaker cabinet of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along a line VI--VI in FIG. 6;
- FIGS. 8A and 8B are, respectively, a plan view and a front view of a grille board used in the speaker cabinet of FIG. 1;
- FIGS. 9A, 9B and 9C are cross-sectional views taken along lines IXa--IXa, IXb--IXb, and IXc--IXc in FIG. 8A;
- FIGS. 10A, 10B and 10C are, respectively, a plan view, a front view and a side view of a front grille used with the speaker cabinet of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 11 is a frequency response diagram showing the relationship between the frequency of an applied sound signal and the oscillation level of a baffle board used in the speaker of the invention.
- FIG. 12 is a fragmentary-sectional view showing a speaker cabinet incorporating a modified form of a sound reflecting member.
- a speaker cabinet body 1 is open over its entire front surface.
- the speaker cabinet body 1 is formed as an integral unit by molding with a thermoplastic resin such as ABS or the like.
- the speaker cabinet body 1 is provided in its interior with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 1a.
- the speaker cabinet body 1 has side walls 1b, which incline inwardly towards the rear of the cabinet. Due to the provision of these inclined side walls 1b, as will be described below in more detail, resonances within the speaker cabinet body 1 and a baffle board employed therein are avoided.
- Another advantage of the sloped side walls 1b is that the cabinet body 1 is easier to mold during an injection molding process.
- An opening 1c is foremd in one of the inclined side walls 1b adjacent one of the corners of the body 1, and a signal terminal plate 2 is secured by screws (not shown) to the body 1 with a sealing member 2a interposed around the opening 1c.
- a longitudinally extending elongated rib 1d is formed in the interior of the cabinet body 1.
- the elongated rib 1d serves to reinforce the cabinet body 1 as a whole, thereby permitting it to be molded as a relatively thin-walled member. This further minimizes the formation of sink marks and prevents warping of the cabinet body 1. Because the cabinet body 1 can be made thin walled, the molding speed may be increased, and a lesser amount of resin used, thereby significantly reducing the overall cost of the cabinet.
- a hollow 1e is formed at the rear of the elongated rib 1d to further reduce the weight of the cabinet body 1.
- the length of the rib 1d should be less than the distance between the side walls 1b of the body 1 adjacent its ends. The space between the ends of the elongated rib 1d and the adjacent side walls prevents standing waves from arising inside the cabinet body 1, and thereby suppresses resonances within the cabinet body 1.
- the cabinet body 1 is formed along the edges of its front side with a stepped portion into which a baffle board 3 is fitted.
- a sealing member 3a (FIG. 1) seals the periphery of the baffle board 3 to the cabinet body 1.
- the baffle board 3 is secured by set screws to the cabinet body 1.
- the baffle board 3 may be a press-formed particle board or the like, having a desired sound-absorbing characteristic.
- the forward edge of the elongated rib 1d abuts the rear surface of the baffle board 3, with a sealing member 3b (FIG. 1) interposed therebetween.
- the elongated rib 1d is connected to the baffle board 3 by set screws (not shown), thereby rendering the cabinet as a whole rigid.
- Glass wool or the like may be inserted as a sound-absorbing member in the space defined between the cabinet body 1 and the baffle board 3.
- FIG. 11 is a frequency characteristic diagram showing the oscillation frequency and oscillation level of the baffle board 3 in the case where the elongated rib 1d is provided (solid line) and where the elongated rib 1d is omitted (dashed line). As is apparent from this diagram, the oscillation level of the baffle board 3 is substantially reduced by the provision of the elongated rib 1d.
- a single elongated rib 1d is provided in the embodiment illustrated in the accompanying drawings, a plurality of such ribs may be provided if desired. Specifically, for larger size speakers, it may be desirable to provide plural ones of such ribs. Further, if desired, the elongated rib or ribs 1d may be slanted relative to a plane perpendicular to the front face of the cabinet body 1, but should be maintained parallel to the sides of the cabinet body 1.
- a woofer 4 and a tweeter 5 are mounted on the baffle board 3 closely adjacent one another at one side thereof.
- the rear end of the tweeter 5 is inserted into an opening 3c formed in the baffle board 3, and the tweeter 5 is secured with set screws 5a to the baffle board 3.
- the rear end of the woofer 4 is inserted in an opening 3d formed in the baffle board 3, and the woofer 4 secured with set screws 4a to supports lg projecting from the interior of the cabinet body 1.
- a sealing member 4c may be provided between the rear of the flange of the woofer 4 and the baffle board 3.
- the area in the baffle board 3 where the woofer 4 is received is preferably recessed to a depth substantially equal to the thickness of the flange 4b of the woofer 4. This is done to reduce the thickness of the cabinet as a whole.
- the provision of the recess 3e in the baffle board 3 facilitates the correct positioning of the woofer 4 on the baffle board 3.
- a recess may also be formed to accommodate the tweeter 5.
- the baffle board 3 is rigidly attached to the cabinet body 1 to reduce the amount of oscillation of the baffle board 3. Attaching the baffle board 3 to the cabinet body 1 with the same set screws 4a as are used to secure the woofer 4 to the baffle board 3 reduces the total number of parts in the speaker and reduces the number of assembly steps.
- a printed circuit board assembly 6 is fixedly mounted to the rear of the baffle board 3 in an area near the woofer 4.
- the printed circuit board assembly 6 contains a frequency-dividing network for dividing the input signal between the woofer 4 and the tweeter 5.
- the grille board 7 is rectangular in shape, and includes openings 7a formed in areas corresponding to the diaphragms of the woofer 4 and tweeter 5.
- the openings 7a are separated by a partitioning segment at a position corresponding to the space between the woofer 4 and tweeter 5.
- Set screws 7c secure the grille board 7 to the baffle board 3, specifically, the set screws 7c are screwed into projections 1h integrally formed in the cabinet body (FIG. 1). This prevents the grille board 7 from being warped or otherwise distorted due to variations in temperature, humidity and other such factors.
- the grille board 7 is provided at its rear with abutment bosses 7d at the position of each of the screws 7c, projecting rearwardly towards the baffle board 3.
- the grille board 7 is prevented from vibrating.
- a groove 7e is formed around the periphery of the front surface of the grille board 7.
- the frame 9a of a sound-porous front grille 9 Into the groove 7a is received the frame 9a of a sound-porous front grille 9.
- the frame 9a of the front grille 9 has engaging protrusions 9b, for instance, six in number. The tip of each engaging protrusion 9b is bent outwardly.
- Corresponding recesses 7f are formed along the groove 7e.
- a rigid plate 10, made of glass or the like, is mounted to further reduce the amount of oscillation of the baffle board 3.
- the plate 10 is secured with, for example, four screws 10a to the baffle board 3.
- the screws 10a may be of a type which can be turned with a coin or the like for convenience.
- a spacer 10b, preferably made of a resin material and which serves as a washer, is interposed between each of these screws 10a and plate 10.
- a vibration-absorbing plate 12 which may be made of a vibration-absorbing paper or the like, and a sheet 13 of a colored paper.
- a foamed styrole material can be employed.
- the plate 10 may be made of cork, in which case the colored paper can, of course, be omitted.
- the use of a glass plate is, however, preferred in that a photograph or picture may be arranged between the colored paper 13 and the glass plate 10 in that case.
- the plate 10 is made of cork, it is still possible to attach a photograph or the like to the plate 10 by the use of thumbtacks.
- a circular opening is formed in the rear of the cabinet body 1 at a position corresponding to the yoke 4a of the woofer 4.
- a substantially dish-shaped heat radiating member 14 which is formed of a material having a high thermal conductivity and which is resistant to distortion caused by heating.
- the purpose of the member 14 is to dissipate heat generated in the yoke 4d of the woofer 4 so that deformation of the cabinet body 1 due to heating is avoided.
- FIG. 12 shows a modified form of the heat radiating member.
- the radiating member 15 has a peripheral portion encircling the yoke 4d of the woofer 4, having a nearly bowl-type shape as a whole. By encircling the yoke 4d of the woofer 4, an enhanced heat dissipating effect is obtained.
- the speaker cabinet body is provided at its rear with four mounting members 16, arranged at positions such that the center of the rectangle defined by the four mounting members 16 is at the center of gravity of the complete speaker, including the cabinet body 1, baffle board 3, woofer 4, tweeter 5, rigid plate 10, and all other members.
- the mounting members 16 are provided for mounting the speaker to a wall or the like.
- Each of the mounting members 16 is formed by a concave 1h (FIG. 7) formed integrally with the rear of the cabinet body 1, and a metal fixture 16, which may be made of steel and which is secured to the cabinet body 1 with screws 16a.
- the concaves 1h are formed by depressing the back of the cabinet body 1 after injection during the molding process.
- Each metal fixture 16 has an opening 16c into which the head of the nail or screw secured to the wall where the cabinet is to be mounted is received.
- each opening 16c has branches 16d, which are provided to restrict the movement of the speaker in the direction of gravity.
- the branches 16d extend substantially perpendicular to one another and have a width less than the outer diameter of the head of the nail or screw secured to the wall.
- the speaker cabinet according to the invention includes side walls which incline inwardly toward the rear of the speaker cabinet. Because the distances between opposite side walls of the speaker cabinet body vary in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the baffle board, standing wave patterns are prevented from occurring. This eliminates resonances from the speaker cabinet.
- the signal terminal plate is formed on one of the inclined side walls, it is not visible from the front of the cabinet. This improves the appearance of the cabinet as a whole. Also, with such mounting of the signal terminal plate, the signal cable can readily be connected to or disconnected from the terminals on the signal terminal plate while the speaker cabinet is mounted to the wall.
- the inventive speaker cabinet is advantageous in that the resin molding operation is quite simple, the resin being able to flow smoothly during molding with substantially no production of sink marks. Also, inclining the side walls toward the back of the cabinet makes the cabinet appear very thin, thereby improving the overall appearance of the cabinet.
